    I really enjoyed seeing your video. One of my mom's friends went on a trip to the Galapagos Islands in the 1980s. I remember my mom said it cost her a lot of money. Thank you for showing how to do it low cost. My son is 12 years old and in a wheelchair. We went on an Indian safari to see a tiger which proved challenging. We were so lucky to see a leopard. Years ago before he or my 10 year old daughter were born I did a safari in Kenya.

    Indeed the sheer volume of life is overwhelming on what would otherwise be a desolate rock!

    Which month was your visit? Trying to gauge visibility under water, water temp and sea calm/roughness

    @@Travelog Thank you! I am planning to go this July. It seems you had great visibility! Due to having only 6 days, I was looking into doing only San Cristibal, as you suggested. The amount of travel if we want to add Isabela seems to be too much, leaving much less time to enjoy.

    Well technically sea lions...but yes they are all over San Cristobal! There’s some on the other islands as well, but there’s hundreds every night in the downtown on the beaches, pier, and even in the plazas and streets!
